Summary

The Anniston City Council approved an ordinance prohibiting motorized vehicles on Chief Lidanga Trail after the council read the ordinance by title and took it up for immediate consideration.
Council members said the ordinance had been discussed during a prior work session; the mayor moved to read the ordinance by title only and to open a public hearing on that reading. The council then sought unanimous consent for immediate consideration and recorded unanimous affirmative votes from the members present.
A clerk’s roll call recorded “yes” votes from Councilman Downey, Councilman Roberts, Councilman Harrington, Councilman Harris and Mayor Smith. The transcript does not record additional testimony during a public hearing on the topic, nor does it include the ordinance number, the full text beyond the title, or an effective date.
Councilors indicated the ordinance was on its first reading but that, per the work session discussion, the council would take action the same night. The transcript does not show amendments, conditions or implementation details attached to the ordinance at the time it passed.
